1976 Map of White Cloud NE

About this map

Brohman sits as a central point of reference in this mid-1970s orthophotoquad, which provides a high-altitude visual record of the Newaygo County landscape. Unlike a traditional line-and-symbol map, this aerial survey uses optical scanning of 1:80,000-scale photography to show the actual ground cover, revealing the dense patchwork of woodlots and open fields surrounding Woodland Park. The imagery captures the specific patterns of land use and vegetation during the spring of 1976, offering a unique perspective on the rural roads and natural clearings that defined the township before modern development or forest maturation altered the terrain. The presence of numerous small lakes and glacial depressions is clearly visible across the surface, providing a raw look at the hydrology of the White Cloud area.
